I’ve got a holiday story with brand new characters available for free in exchange for signing up to my (rather infrequent) newsletter. Just click on the link to go to Instafreebie and claim your prize!

The story is set on New Year’s Eve… 1999! Inspired by my love of the 90’s and the movie Empire Records, it features an unlikely romance between Daniel, a lonely record store clerk, and Nix, a would-be shoplifter and wannabe DJ.

I hope you enjoy Gonna Listen To My Body Tonight – the story is only available until January 3. And check out the Extras section for a link to a playlist of 90’s tunes to listen to while you read!

New Year’s Eve 1999—it’s either the end of the world or the start of something new.

Daniel, a shy record store clerk, finds himself closing up the store by himself on New Year’s Eve. He’s got big plans—either throwing himself at yet another straight boy crush, or going home alone to see if Y2K really does cause worldwide panic. Messing up those plans is Nix, a snarky wannabe DJ and maybe shoplifter. With the countdown on, they have to face their own fears and a mutual attraction. What will happen when midnight comes? Will it be a kiss or the end of the world as they know it?

This standalone story is complete at 16K with no cliffhangers! It also features obscure 90’s music, unfair slagging of Gap-wear, and explicit sexytimes between adult men.
